Morning everyone.
Just a quickie today. My brother’s girlfriend passed her driving test a couple of weeks ago, WELL DONE Hayley !!!
So here’s the card I made her….
The card base was from Creative Crafting World. I’ve cut the car with a sizzix die that I’ve had for years, then added some eyelashes using the bitty blossoms die by spellbinders and a number plate. The “congratulations” has been cut with a Britannia die and the flowers were from the stash. I’ve also added a paper bow I cut myself to finish it off.

Hi everyone.
Hope you’re having a great bank holiday weekend. The weather’s lovely here !!
I’ve made a handbag for a friend.
I found a logo and some zebra print paper on the net, which I’ve used to cover the handbag. The handles were cut with my spellbinders.
I also made a box for it to go in.
Short and sweet today off to cook dinner and enjoy the weather

Hi Everyone
Another weekend over and a new week begins, but we’ve got a long weekend to look forward to. YAY !!
I’ve got a card I CASED from the creative expressions volume 2 book today. Some one at my Son’s works asked me to do a card for their friend’s 7oth birthday and he’s into model aircraft, so I thought this would fit the bill perfectly. I’ve just changed it slightly by adding the age to the bottom right hand corner instead of a welcome home message.
I’ve followed what was said in the book, but I’ve used mostly products from Stampin Up. These are……. the cardstock, newsprint paper, stripy paper, the stamp on the crumb cake background and the stamp on the very vanilla background behind the plane. The Plane is a Justrite Stamp, which has been coloured with promarkers and die cut using the corresponding dies. The 70 has been layered on shapes punched with Stampin Up punches and the twine and button are also Stampin Up.

I love promarkers - square card with something round on it.

I’m off to my local craft shop to pick up a stamp I ordered and then working on some workshop samples, so watch this space.

Hi Everyone.
Well the weekend is nearly here, Whoo Whoo.
I’ve got a man’s birthday card today, for someone who loves birds, the feathered kind LOL.
This is an 8″x8″ card base. I’ve used one of Sue Wilson’s A4 embossing folders on the background and rubbed some guilding wax over the top.
I’ve stamped the birds in a tree stamp in black ink onto crumb cake coloured card and die cut with my circle nesties. This has then been matted onto another spellbinders die.The single bird on a branch has been punched with a Stampin Up punch.
I’ve added some ribbon, a twine Knot, the age and a sentiment to finish it off.
Have a lovely weekend !!

Hi everyone, what a lovely day it’s been today and Happy St George’s Day
I’ve got a book card today, the inspiration for this was the baby’s name, Daisy.
I’ve used the book a trix board by keepsake crafting to make the base of this card. The rest was computer generated and die cut with my oval nesties. I’ve added some peel offs and a ribbon and hey presto. I also made a box a lope for this card but unfortunately didn’t take a piccie.
Here’s the delightful Daisy Duck, I’ve also decoupaged her.
Well, short and sweet today. Be back soon.

Happy weekend everyone.
Were having some lovely weather here, been sitting in the garden this morning.
It was my friend Mandy’s birthday last week here’s the card I made her.
Firstly I drew myself a template, of a cotton reel, for the base card shape and covered it in newsprint paper. I stamped a measuring tape onto kraft cardstock, the stamp was from a retired Stampin’ Up set.
The dress form was cut with a sizzix die from kraft cardstock. I cut it again from some patterned paper for the bodice of the dress and added some pink polka dot organza ribbon for the skirt. I also added some organza roses to the waist and some pearls around the neck.
The roses have been made from the Tim Holtz tattered flower die from sizzix. I’ve added some feathers, lace and a sentiment to finish it off.
Challenges Entered
ABC – L for Lovely Lace
Allsorts – Passion for flowers
One Stop Craft Challenge – Not Square
Mandy loved her card, so did I. You know, sometimes you just make a card and you know you’re happy with it. Will certainly be making some more like this !!!
Well off to enjoy the sunshine whilst we have it.

Hi Everyone.
A card I made for a friend’s birthday today.
I got this cottage cutz Topsy Turvy cake die from the Harrogate show, it was a bargain, on sale at £5. It’s been pieced together and mounted onto a DL card ( love it). The words have been die cut with a Britannia die.
